Friday I assume (per C.C.) will be the donation announcement by one specific bake sale. The bake sale was very successful. This will set everything in motion and potentially announce the official announcement.

April 26th I can only assume is the Athletic Department's official announcement that will include timeline, renderings, etc.

RIP Opening day

I didnt hate Calvin but that new building is going to be sweet. Worst part was how hot it always was when you first walked in the building.

I mean, damn.

"The Vanier gift comes at a time in which K-State is benefiting from record philanthropic giving. The KSU Foundation has reached record marks of $99 million, $110 million and $152 million in the past three fiscal years."

say you are flying into MHK on a beautiful AA bird (direct flight from ORD) and in your pocket is your checkbook that you are going to write a $60 million check to your most awesome beloved university and then probably grab some taco lucha and some beers with your best buds and watch some college basketball and not really care who wins because it's just basketball but still go cats and all. how great do you feel?

How is Vanier so rich? Cows and land?

For K-State Athletics, the gift provides $20 million to support Phase III of the LHC Bill Snyder Family Stadium master plan. Phase III of the master plan includes dramatic upgrades for student-athlete needs spanning the entire 16-sport department. These include a new academic learning center [to help out football players stay eligible], new football operations offices [to help our football program recruit and retain great coaches], new sports medicine operations and new strength and conditioning spaces [to help our football players stay as beefed up and healthy as possible]. Basic fan amenities in the north end zone will also be enhanced as the end zone seating and services are upgraded [and it will also look awesome on TV, in person, and from space].

The Vanier's investments did much better than expected over the past few years. They had some extra cash-flow they weren't sure what to do with...you know....K-State grad problems.

Poll

Will the "cool" Pinstripe Bowl K-State be on the new field at BSFS?
